Have you ever

Have you ever loved somebody so much
It makes you cry

There's a difference in every person you like/love/interested in. There are different approaches in dealing with ache, typically with tears or with moping.

But what's the difference between this and that?

This doesn't hurt. Not at all. This doesn't make me want to leave and doesn't make me want to hide. This doesn't make me feel pain, not in the slightest. This doesn't degrade me.

Yet, why do I feel so empty? Cliched, right? What does empty really mean anyways.

Empty. Emptiness. Loss. Like someone slowly detached a vital organ of mine. Because though I'm functional, I feel disabled. I feel like I'm missing something.

In another world, in another time, I would have married you.

I felt at peace whenever I was with you.
